#48: Seeing Double
This guy was doing his best to go above and beyond for Valentine’s Day, but he ended up creating a cultural misunderstanding instead. It all started with a rose. He was buying a single rose for his girlfriend when the cashier told him they had a two-for-one special. What gal wouldn’t love to receive a couple of roses on Valentine’s Day?
He bought the rose duo without a second thought. However, his girlfriend’s face was horrified when he presented them to her. He had no idea that presenting two roses to someone was a funeral tradition. In his girlfriend’s culture, it wasn’t romantic at all! The two were able to laugh it off when they cleared up the miscommunication. You live and learn.
